Chapter 584: Rubion Galaxy, Occupation Completed!
The attack effect of plasma torpedoes was unexpectedly good.
In the eyes of the officers and armed personnel accompanying Franklin, the damage effect was very similar to that of rocket attacks with plasma warheads, but to achieve the effect of plasma torpedoes with such a large charge, everyone roughly estimated that at least two large launch vehicles were needed, and all rockets had to hit the building to achieve a similar damage effect.
The administrative building, which was mainly made of steel structure, was basically melted under the ultra-high temperature of the attack. After the attack, these steel structures were twisted together in the process of rapid cooling, and finally presented a state that the original designer could not recognize.
In this case, the people inside the building basically did not need to consider the survival rate.
Although it is true that there is a possibility of miracles of life, by the time the rescue team arrived and tried to break the obstacles formed by the steel structures and searched for survivors in the ruins, the bodies were almost cold.
Not to mention that the area near the administrative building is about to become a new battlefield.
Although Alex and the city defense commander and others were blown away by the attack, they still conveyed the orders to the combat units on standby around them before the attack arrived.
So not long after Franklin and his team left the administrative building, and when the plasma torpedo just entered the atmosphere, several combat units near the administrative building that received the order had already taken action.
However, the sudden attack on the administrative building still made them panic. The troops that were originally charging straight towards the front area of the administrative building stopped abruptly to observe the situation.
Although the commanders of these troops are the most loyal to the city defense commander Warren, this does not mean that they will rush directly towards the high-temperature plasma fireball produced by the explosion of the plasma torpedo.
When the fireball extinguished and the administrative building disappeared from sight, the commanders of these combat troops immediately found that they could no longer contact Warren, so they hesitated again for a while and asked the troops to hide and wait on the street.
This gave Franklin and his team an extremely valuable time window to gather troops.
According to the requirements of the autonomous government, the Renaissance Alliance guards, who were temporarily on standby at the stadium three blocks away, took the lead in dealing with the surrounding guards at the moment the administrative building exploded.
Then, the guards rushed to the scheduled meeting point with Franklin and his team without hesitation, and successfully protected Franklin and his team before the surrounding guards surrounded them, and quickly established a temporary defense circle based on a nearby citizen park.
But the guards that Franklin and his team could bring were limited after all, and the autonomous government could not agree to let the former bring a large number of troops into Bresk just like that - if they really did so, what would happen if these troops let in gave themselves a "center bloom"?
So when the city defense troops came to their senses and surrounded them, the Renaissance Alliance's front line suddenly became under great pressure.
"Has the support not yet arrived?! Our troops are limited in number and can't hold out for too long!"
With the help of his entourage, Franklin, who had quickly changed into a combat exoskeleton and the highest-specification external armor plates, could no longer remain calm when looking at the precarious defense line around him. He rushed directly to the commander of the escort force and asked.
While he was roaring loudly, a nearby 'Holy Shield' that was in a defensive posture was also knocked out of its deflection force field under the enemy's concentrated fire.
The next second, several attacks from different directions swept over and instantly blew up the combined heavy shield mounted on the left mechanical arm and shoulder guard of the Holy Shield.
Just when the middle door of this HCP was wide open and it was about to be blown up by the next round of attacks, another 'Holy Shield' supported the deflection force field and blocked it in front of it. While blocking the attack, it also attacked the enemy unit in front that was about to fire. At the end, it also fired a series of thermal smoke bombs, temporarily blocking the area in front of the street.
But the smoke wall of thermal energy smoke had just formed not long ago, and the two HCPs suddenly made an emergency lateral movement to the left and right sides, because their omnidirectional warning devices had just issued a buzzing sound that they were locked by the enemy's fire control unit.
However, for the various weapons equipped by HCP, there is no need to consider the lead time in ground combat, and almost all pilots "shoot with their hands raised".
So when the blue-white beam of the heavy particle cannon blew away the smoke wall that had just formed, and swept towards this side with an unstoppable momentum, it still hit one of the "Holy Shields".
Fortunately, this was the "Holy Shield" whose deflection field had not been overloaded.
The "attack special effects" of the heavy particle cannon in the atmosphere are already extremely spectacular. After the high-speed heavy metal particle jet hits the deflection field and is refracted in various ways, the gorgeousness of this "attack special effect" has reached a new level.
However, such "special effects" are not so beautiful for the surrounding infantry.
Many soldiers who were attacking had to rush out of their original bunkers and quickly hide behind nearby armored vehicles. After all, the heavy metal particles that were splashing randomly in the sky were not something that human bodies could withstand.
The commander of the Renaissance Alliance's escort force also pulled Franklin to the ground at the moment when the heavy particle cannon bombarded the deflection field, and blocked him with his body.
Fortunately, a nearby command vehicle helped them withstand everything, and the 'Sacred Shield', which had an overloaded deflection field generator, also took the initiative to block Franklin and others after discovering the 'VIP' nearby. Otherwise, the leader of the Renaissance Alliance would most likely have died from an 'unknown AOE attack' just now.
"Cough cough cough cough."
Franklin, who was choked by the flying dust and smoke and coughed, stumbled up from the ground and saw the 'Holy Shield' that had just blocked the direct fire of the heavy particle cannon. At this time, he had already drawn his plasma heavy sword and headed towards it. The HCP garrison in the distance rushed over.
The roar that was a moment late showed that the instantaneous acceleration of this 'Sacred Shield' had exceeded the speed of sound. Franklin felt that he had just blinked, and this 'Sacred Shield' driven by a veteran had already cut the heavy sword. The tip of the sword was sent into the cockpit of the enemy HCP.
But the HCP and anti-vehicle teams that surrounded them immediately put the 'Holy Shield' into a tough fight. Not only did they use the deflection field and close-range firepower, they also used a move called 'Backhand Sword'. ’, using the broad blade of the Heavy Sword to block two anti-vehicle missiles heading towards the plasma propulsion array.
However, although the propulsion array was saved in this way, the Heavy Sword was still blown into three pieces.
The pilot of the 'Holy Shield' who had lost his melee weapon had no time to think about it. While the mechanical foot kicked hard, the plasma thruster once again burst out with dazzling blue light, and the entire machine body rushed towards the nearest HCP of the garrison.
Under the mapping of the control operating system, the pilot's movements were eventually transformed into a heavy punch of the 'Sacred Shield' towards the target HCP.
Seeing this scene from a distance, Franklin only felt heartbroken. These veterans who survived the bloody battle were valuable assets of the Renaissance Alliance, but now they had to fight with the enemy on the front to save his life.
Thinking of this, he immediately approached the escort commander who also got up from the ground and asked again:
"Where's the long-range fire support?! Where are the assault troops?! This little force here is already unstoppable!"
——
In a second-line preset position 100 kilometers away from Breske, an electromagnetic self-propelled gun battalion is waiting for the final firing order.
The 24 E-2 heavy-duty vehicle-mounted self-propelled electromagnetic guns have already put down their auxiliary tools and loaded high-explosive bombs with the equivalent of 300 kilograms of TNT. The long ""-shaped electromagnetic guns are pointed at the sky like spears.
On the other two positions 2 kilometers away from here, two self-propelled electromagnetic gun battalions are also deployed. The three self-propelled electromagnetic gun battalions on the entire artillery preset position total 72 E-2 heavy-duty vehicle-mounted self-propelled electromagnetic guns. The artillery is exactly the self-propelled electromagnetic gun in the artillery combined brigade under the group army in the Atlas ground force combat sequence. Compared with the complete artillery combined brigade, there are only two less self-propelled rocket launcher battalions.
Is this a coincidence?
Of course not.
Otherwise, there would not be Van Fleet standing near the launch site with a satisfied smile on his face.
Although the equipment of these three self-propelled electromagnetic gun battalions is marked with the logo of the Renaissance Alliance, everything from the equipment to the personnel is actually from the Atlas Ground Combat Force, and they are completely reskinned units.
These E-2 heavy-duty vehicle-mounted self-propelled electromagnetic guns were sent here. In addition to providing some ultra-long-range fire support to the Renaissance Alliance, more importantly, they also collect more data in actual combat environments.
After all, this equipment had experienced actual combat on the Para IV before. After that, Atlas had never encountered a scene that required the E-2 heavy-duty vehicle-mounted self-propelled electromagnetic gun to be dispatched.
Therefore, after Amber heard that Breske, the administrative capital of Lubion 5, had been 'fortified' by the autonomous government, he immediately transferred the newly formed artillery composite brigade of the group army to participate in the ground battle of the Renaissance Alliance.
Van Fleet, who has had few opportunities for actual combat since joining Atlas, also volunteered to find Amber, hoping to become the commander of this force and do some "tiny things" for the group.
Naturally, Amber would not refuse the request of the former federal army lieutenant general and current adviser to the Atlas Ground Combat Force.
"Sir! Received a request for fire support from the delegation's escort force!"
The sudden sound on the communication channel made Van Fleet and several officers around him suddenly excited.
Although Van Fleet is the top officer of this 'reskinned unit', he will not directly participate in the basic combat command, so the commander of the self-propelled electromagnetic gun battalion will still take command.
"Fire support request confirmed! The combat data link channel is clear, confirmation code TW300Z! The coordinate information has been received! Firepower Battalion A will immediately conduct a long-range fire strike in accordance with the combat plan!"
"Attention all units, this fire support operation at extremely close range is extremely dangerous. Be careful to avoid the location of friendly forces!"
"Attention, fire commander, frontline communications have been connected!"
As the firepower coordination channel received communications from the front line, the first thing that sounded was a burst of intense firefighting that could still be felt after noise reduction.
What followed was the anxious voice of the fire observer in the escort force.
"FDC, this is FO1. An urgent long-range fire strike is needed now! The situation in the 'VIP' area is critical! The strike coordinates have been transmitted through the data link. Have you received it? Complete!"
"FO1, this is FDC, all information has been received through the data link, and now for the final confirmation!
The targets are HCP, heavy armored vehicles, and heavy infantry.
The fire support unit will use high-explosive warheads for precision strikes, and the dispersion method is standard 3. After confirmation, the attack procedure will be executed, over!"
Since the combat forces of the Renaissance Alliance have already used the new combat data link provided by Atlas, the current fire strike process has been simplified too much.
In addition, there are always military reconnaissance satellites flying over Bresk, so there is no need for the front-line troops to provide relevant information, and the fire strike forces in the rear can prepare for the attack in advance.
In short, it was much simpler than the process when Amber was trembling on Robert IV, directing the self-propelled rocket.
"FDC, this is FO1, all information is confirmed! Please start the attack as soon as possible! We can't stop it!"
"FO1, this is FDC, start the fire attack in 10 seconds."
The fire commander said while issuing the "start the attack" order on the joint command terminal, and then said:
"This attack is a high-risk fire support at a very close distance. Please keep a safe distance and don't get tangled with the target! Repeat, don't get tangled with the target."
Before the fire commander finished his last sentence, he felt the command vehicle tremble, and at the same time, a thunderous artillery sound came from outside the vehicle.
"Fire calibration is completed, each crew reloads! Waiting for the attack result data to be transmitted back!"
After receiving the warning from the fire observer, the Renaissance Alliance troops in Bresk quickly took back some of the combat units that were pushed back.
Including the "Holy Shield" that was fighting the enemy with fists and close-range weapons, it also stumbled back to the defense line with the support of friendly direct fire.
Almost at the same time, this "Holy Shield" retreated behind its comrades, began to conduct emergency self-inspection and took out the spare electromagnetic machine gun from the weapon container.
Thor's hammer has descended.
These garrison troops besieging the Renaissance Alliance were almost simultaneously attacked by 300 kg TNT equivalent high-explosive warheads. From a God's perspective, the huge explosion and fire almost completely surrounded Franklin's temporary position, but fortunately there was no accidental attack.
Even so, when the shells of the 300mm inner diameter self-propelled electromagnetic gun landed, the terrifying killing effect still stunned everyone, and many people even secretly felt lucky that this thing did not fall on their heads.
At the artillery position, the 24 E-2 heavy vehicle-mounted self-propelled electromagnetic guns responsible for the attack also quickly received observation data on the killing effect, and the fire control program immediately began to make slight corrections according to the landing point of the shells.
When the icons representing the 24 E-2 heavy vehicle-mounted self-propelled electromagnetic guns all turned green, the fire commander did not hesitate to issue the order of "effective shooting".
Amid the incessant roar of the self-propelled electromagnetic guns, Van Fleet, who watched the attack process closely throughout the whole process, gradually began to smile and became "fire coverage".
Although the city defense units deployed near the Bresk Administration Building are all serious heavy-armored troops, this does not mean that they can still maintain their combat capabilities under such fire coverage.
More than half of the troops disappeared directly in the bombardment, while the remaining troops quickly retreated and temporarily stopped the attack, preparing to launch a round of strong attacks after more troops arrived.
After seeing this scene, Franklin, who had been nervous all the time, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked up at the sky and saw a shower of meteors sliding across the sky and falling towards the ground.
"I'm waiting for the Hell Troopers. What are you waiting for?"
